  Death	18 Sep 1909	Ramsay Twp, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada
  	1909, Friday September 24, The Almonte Gazette front page Mrs Robt McLean The death took place at the old homestead on Sunday morning of Mrs Robt McLean, one of the oldest and most respected residents of Ramsay. The deceased had been in her usual good health until last Saturday morning when she became confined to her room and from then she gradually sank until the end came peacefully at two o'clock on Sabbath morning. The late Mrs McLean was a daughter of John Dunlop, of the 6th line Ramsay. She was born at the homestead April 4th, 1823, consequently she had lived nearly eighty-seven years in the same neighbourhood. She married Robt McLean in 1843 and since then for a period of sixty-six years she has lived on the old McLean farm. Her husband predeceased her in 1897, at the age of 82 years. Her family consists of three sons and four daughters ? Lachlan in Beckwith, Robert D. of Winnipeg, Malcolm of Wainwright, Alta, Mrs Robt Philip of Bennie's Corners, Christina at home, Mrs Armstrong of Winnipeg, Mrs Templeman of Sudbury. The funeral, which took place on Tuesday afternoon, was largely attended, particularly by the old residents. Services were conducted by Mr J.B. Dunlop, an intimate personal friend of the deceased. Mr Dunlop spoke feelingly of the Christian life led by the dead, using the 14th chapter of Revelation, "Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord," as the basis of his remarks. He pointed our the many excellent characteristics shown throughout the life of the deceased as a true friend, a good neighbour, as a humble follower of Christ and as a perfect example of a peaceful death, the fulfilment of a well rounded out, honourable life work. The demise, in the fullness of time, of the late Mrs McLean marks the removal of another of the few remaining old settlers in the township, but with almost fourscore years and ten to her credit she was fully prepared and perhaps eager to enter into that great rest which she had so fully earned.
